I voted "NO" because in my view it is the different CULTURAL expectations that can cause misunderstandings and problems in a relationship. Furthermore there is only ONE race of humans {the descendants of Adam} so in that sense there is NO SUCH THING as an interracial relationship or marriage. I personally have dated an African lady and would have no problem in principle with dating a lady from any people group. Peter  "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth" 2 Timothy 2 v 15

I've found that race does matter to a lot of Christinans, I find that odd since Jesus was not "white" yet they profess to love him,,it's just one of those things that I find confussing  Life is an adventure.

In Christ we are all one so I don't think it is a problem.

Peter When you look at most job applications, it asks you "What race are you," and it gives you the choices, but you dont check off all of them unless you are making the point that it doesnt matter what race you are becaue everyone is capable of doing the job the same. This next part is also beside the point, but I must say that all the ethnicities arnt the decendants of Adam. They are the decendants of of Abraham (and his wife) for the bible says that God told Abraham that he would make him the "father of all nations." Up untill that point, their was only one ethnicity on the plant.

Actually there is such thing as interracial relationships. What is happening here is a "game" of playing of symantics. Race/ethnicity means the same thing because of how words can have its meaning changed, but that isnt the issue.
